What Is gPanel & Why Does It Excel Over Alternative Solutions?
Are you looking for a comprehensive platform to manage your organization's Google Workspace? Wondering what gPanel® is and how it compares to other...
Google Workspace offers a myriad of intuitive features and applications meant to streamline communication. But what if you could take it one step further?
With gPanel®, you can. gPanel is Promevo's exclusive Workspace management and reporting software that helps you harness the full capabilities of Google's tools. Using gPanel, you can standardize your users' profiles, sharing permissions, email signatures, and more, thereby ensuring consistent branding and improving internal and external communications.
gPanel is Promevo's Google Workspace management and reporting software that gives organizations and Google admins the tools they need to better manage their users and protect sensitive data.
Using gPanel, you can oversee files, email communications, user profiles, and other internal processes within your company. You can also schedule or manually generate reports that provide valuable insights into domain activity.
Although gPanel isn't a communication tool on its own, its robust user management, automation, and reporting features streamline communication-related workflows, helping users more effectively manage internal and external communications as well as ensure standardized branding.
gPanel provides comprehensive user management features, allowing administrators to add, modify, or delete user accounts with just a few clicks. You can even upload new users in bulk to really speed up your user creation workflows. These features ensure that employees have the necessary access to Google Workspace communication tools like Gmail and Google Chat.
If you want to simplify user management even more, then check out the gPanel API — a new feature exclusive to the Enterprise tier. This new tool allows you to integrate the gPanel platform with Paycor, Splunk, Okta, and other common operational tools. That way when you create a user on any of these platforms, gPanel will. automatically create a matching profile, saving you time.
Setting up and configuring email accounts across multiple user accounts can be a daunting task. With the gPanel, you can create custom policies that automatically configure any new users' email account based on their job title or other key factors, so they can start communicating internally and externally right away.
If a user leaves the organization, you can also create policies that automatically decommission the account and streamline the offboarding process.
gPanel simplifies the process of creating and deploying standardized email signatures across the organization. Create custom signature templates with any Google’s profile fields with the ability to include links, images, profile picture, etc. These can then be applied to a user, group, OU or your whole domain.
Together, these features help maintain a consistent and professional appearance in email communication.
Administrators can use gPanel to manage Google Groups and distribution lists effectively. This includes creating and deleting groups, configuring group settings, and managing group memberships, making it easier to facilitate communication within and across teams.
For example, you can create a distribution list for every department in your organization. That way if a user needs to send a document to everyone on that team but don't know everyone's names or email addresses, they can do so simply by contacting that group. This makes it easier for users to distribute critical resources.
gPanel allows administrators to manage shared contact lists, ensuring that employees have easy access to important contact information. This feature streamlines communication by making it simple to share contact lists among team members, so everyone has access to the same information
gPanel provides tools to set up email routing and filtering rules, which can help organizations manage and control incoming and outgoing email communication more effectively.
If you need to create an alias for a particular user or group, you can set that up in gPanel as well.
Admins can pull reports showing any document a user has shared externally over the last few months — or, if you have gPanel Enterprise, you can view their entire sharing history. This makes it easier to understand who has access to your resources. You can even set up decommissioning rules that revoke external access to any document shared by a user upon their departure from the company.
gPanel Enterprise users also have the ability to automate the consumption of gPanel system logging. Using the gPanel API, admins can return a list of all gPanel logs such as info on all users, all groups, calendars, mobile devices etc. This feature is excellent for auditing, managing applications immediately, and capturing domain information across all teams and users.
